It was during the 70's that I was first introduced to a computer when I was studying at college learning how to program in the 'Basic' language. Back in those days your code had to be absolutely perfect and a missed 'dot' or 'colon' anywhere in your code would result in the nightmare 'syntax error' which told you there was a problem but absolutely nothing about what or where the problem was.
